OSTBAFood Dehydrator, Dehydrator for Food and Jerky, Fruits, Herbs, Veggies, Temperature Control Electric Food Dryer Machine, 5 BPA-Free Trays Dishwasher Safe, 240W, Recipe Book Included

Worked well, have only made beef jerky. It turned out great! Did take a little longer than the 6 hours but we do like it more on the dry side. Will be trying fruit here soon.Size is perfect does not take up a lot of counter space. Easy to use, not loud easy to clean. Trays dishwasher safe.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great little counter dehydrator!! As the one who has to clean it, it cleans easily. Works great and holds a beef brisket easily for jerky. We've used it several times nows and never had an issue. Stores easily, better than the old round one we had.

The OSTBA Food Dehydrator is a great tool for anyone looking to preserve food and create homemade dried snacks. While it delivers on its promise and works effectively, it does take a bit longer to dehydrate items compared to some other models, which could add to the prep time for larger batches. This might require a bit of patience for those who want quick results. Additionally, the unit arrived with a small scratch. While it wasn't significant and didn't affect its functionality, it's worth noting for anyone particular about the appearance of their appliances. Overall, there wasn't anything majorly wrong with the product, and it performs its job well. For its price point, it’s a solid choice for beginners or casual users who are willing to invest the time required for longer dehydration processes.

Started making dog food and treats. Works great for this. Like the compact design and rectangle shape, as opposed to circular. Trays compact nicely for storage. Nice timer and temp controls.

This product works very well. I made crystal candy with this and it’s great!!! Still need too try with fruits one day. It was easy too use., instructions are very informative. Would definitely recommend!

Great product. Works just as presented in the description. Very good price too.

This is a very good little food dehydrator - compact, easy to clean, works well, and from what I gather, energy efficient. However, in the included recipes, they explain how to make fruit leather, and direct you to use the fruit leather tray. There is none included, nor is one available from the company. Given the dehydrator's small size, they don't appear to make silicone or plastic fruit leather trays small enough for use in the machine. Everything is too big. If you are looking to use this for all the myriad ways you can use a dehydrator, just know that unfortunately you cannot make fruit roll or fruit leather with this, as the recommended parts for that don't exist.

This is my first dehydrator. I've used it a half dozen times or so, and I'm reasonably happy with the results. Only reasons to miss the 5th star is that is has a big hole in the middle of the trays. It's also small, but that's what I expected, but the hole in the trays makes filling it with longer items (such as oregano stems) to be annoying. I'll probably upgrade to a larger model in the future, but I expect this to work for this summers herbs.
